History of 12 Gauge Shotgun Shells

The 12 gauge is the most used shotgun shell today, and it has existed in its current cartridge configuration since the late 1800s. Twelve gauge rounds, often seen as 12ga, are used in various situations, including hunting birds and small game, recreational shooting, and home defense.

These ammunitions provide various options in close quarters but don’t perform well at long-distance shots because the projectiles quickly lose their velocity; they require a close-range target, typically 45 yards or less.

Gunslinger said:
These shells are longer than 2 3/4" but shorter than 3", which means you'll one less in your tube magazine than expected. So just treat them like 3" shells.

Dave said:
Good ammo at a fair price worked well in my pump and semi auto. The only down fall I see is I wish the wad covered the shot so the lead wouldn't dirty the barrel as much. Over all very happy.

In a recent tactical training session with my RIA VR-80, I wanted to test out the BioAmmo I had ordered before consuming more expensive Black Tactical 00. Out of 150 BioAmmo #4 rounds used there was 1 FTF and 1 FTE which I considered quite acceptable. Performance and reliability was at least as good as Federal ammo I had used prior to replenishment with BioAmmo, and the price really could not be beat. Will be reordering another 250 round package because it is such a great value, particularly for practice purposes.

I have always trusted Federal ammo to be good quality and this 12 gauge ammo once again proves to me that Federal knows what they are doing when it comes to making ammo! I have had no problems what so ever with any of the ammo I purchased from Ammo.com and I'm a life long customer after dealing with them, the ammo arrived quickly and has served its purpose. I used the ammo in my brand new Mossberg 500 and it cycled properly with no problems, consistent pattern, reasonable recoil and came in a handy little ammo can in great shape (Nice little bonus if you ask me!) I would recommend this ammo to anyone looking for a good quality 00 Buck.
Hondobob said:
I've gone through two cans of this excellent shotgun ammo without complaint. It cycles just fine in my old Winchester 1897, High Standard Supermatic, and a Norinco clone of the Colt 1878 side-by-side. Good patterns and power with manageable recoil. Some ammo cans are loaded with 25-round boxes, others with smaller boxes, but always a total of 175 rounds. An excellent choice for hunting or defense. I'm buying more when it's available.

I needed some ammo with a little more oomph for my Benelli SBE3 because standard "target" ammo tended to jam. I had zero jams with this ammo and hit virtually everything I shot at. I will definitely be ordering more. The quality and performance was very good.

Bascat said:
I purchased the ammo for use in 3 gun matches. The ammo shoots well considering the price, The drawback is the crimp. This ammo has a roll crimp instead of a normal crimp which makes it too long for the shoot shell carriers used in 3 gun and cuts down on the capacity that can be loaded in the shotgun tube.

Bullet Points: 12 Gauge Ammo

The most used shotgun to this day, the 12 gauge shell has existed in its current cartridge configuration since the late 1800s.
From brass to paper to plastic hulls, shotgun ammo technology grew rapidly in the first half of the 20th century. This evolution also brought the iconic Model 500 pump shotgun.
The use of 12 gauge for self defense is growing once again, and specialty ammo is being produced to provide low recoil, buckshot combinations and smaller pellets. When it comes to the 12 gauge versus handguns, the 12 gauge wins with quicker proficiency, greater accuracy, more energy and less issues with over-penetration.
